Somewhere, a young boy studiously makes copies of an old religious primer.
Quote:"CLOAKED IN GARMENTS GOLDAND TAPESTRIES PRETENDING AT MOST HIGH;CLAIMAINT PRETENDERS WILL DECIEVE AT THE TITLE OF GOD."
BISHOP HELMUTH, 1433 AC
We must accept that Creation is just that which its name implies; that it is the design of the Architect Most High. And to accept this is to enlighten ourselves; for in a sea in all directions, there are now claimants to Godhood, from Primordial to Constant; whose existence is built upon the ailing ribs and slow-beating heart of the Lord. That they segment and quarter his flesh to concepts, and make from the immaterial a world of supplicants and constituents. That they require your praise, to reaffirm the foible of their own creation, and keep us from PROVIDENCE, the land beyond prisons of meat and bone.
The people are ignorant lambs! The fleece of faith is pulled over their eyes, and the obvious truth is kept from them by the false Prophet. But the old books speak the truth well. That those who do not accept the Architect once unveiled are deceivers and liars, preying upon the souls of the meek and desperate. That once revealed, that a Faithful did not rest till their wickedness is known among all the corners of the world, and their sin excised by the clemency of fire and faith. For, like fire, faith lifts our souls ever upwards!
Those who are kept ignorant are doomed to repeat the karmic cycles of rebirth, forever trapped in prisons of meat and death; so turn to the TEMPLE and see your spirit uplifted.
SELECT RITES AND PRAYERS:
MILE PRECATIO - THE SOLDIER’S PRAYER
Before a battle, it is customary to strike matches of incense, and to offer the ARCHITECT your pleas for the forgiveness of your enemies who are to die, and to beg him to uplift you after your own demise upon the field. Death is admission to the Throne, and therefore something to be greeted with welcome and open arms.
“HE, WHO RULES,
FORGIVE THE FAILING OF THE LAMB.
FOR OUR FAILURE, AND THEIR IGNORANCE;
WE BEG SALVATION FOR THOSE WHO ARE YET TO DIE
AND FOR OURSELVES, TO JOIN YOU AT THE FOOT OF THE THRONE.”
VITAE EXCULPATIA - THE DRAWING OF THE BLOOD
It is known that the ARCHITECT bleeds and suffers; that from his body, thousands of pretenders feast upon his still-living heart and blood, and from it, stake their dominion over mankind. The faithful must make offerings to him, to return His gift of life once more.
“AS HE BLEEDS, MAN BLEEDS:
AS HE BLEEDS, MAN WEEPS.
LIBERATION THROUGH FAITH,
FOR FLESH IS THE THING OF TEMPTATION.”
At which point, the Apostle collects their blood in a golden bowl, and sets it before the brazier before hymns are sung.
